I see nothing there that states it will work with GFCI and the layout doesn't either. Besides it's just a switch to select using an extension cord to run the second AC or to use the 50a service. Those are available for less than $30 rated to carry 20a.
It is a manual transfer switch but it is more than that.
There are circuits in the box that allow the unit to work with GFI circuits. I have used the unit on GFI outlets and nothing tripped.
If you click the link I posted prior the diagram specifically show the switch being used with GFI outlets. The unit is UL listed which means there are lots of standard that had to be met working on GFI outlets is one of them. Trust me it works.
The developer of the box is a member of the Open Range forum.
He introduced me to his contraption. I am here to say it works well especially on GFI outlets. It is a real game changer.
The avg.RV can pull into 95 per cent of 30 amp sites (those with an additional 20 amp outlet) and run both ACs without issue.
Anyone truly interested can PM me and I will put you in touch with the developer who can confirm how and why the device works on GFI circuits.
